  2. Antiarrhythmic agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiarrhythmic_agent

    Class IV agents are slow non-dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers. They decrease conduction through the AV node, and shorten phase two (the plateau) of the cardiac action potential. They thus reduce the contractility of the heart, so may be inappropriate in heart failure.

  3. Proton-pump inhibitor - Wikipedia

    The rate of omeprazole absorption is decreased by concomitant food intake. [79] In addition, the absorption of lansoprazole and esomeprazole is decreased and delayed by food. It has been reported, however, that these pharmacokinetic effects have no significant impact on efficacy. [80] [81]

    “So you can do things that will briefly lower your heart rate—like deep breathing and meditation—but if you are trying to lower your overall heart rate over a longer period of time, the ...

  5. Cardiac action potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_action_potential

    The action potential passes along the cell membrane causing the cell to contract, therefore the activity of the sinoatrial node results in a resting heart rate of roughly 60–100 beats per minute. All cardiac muscle cells are electrically linked to one another, by intercalated discs which allow the action potential to pass from one cell to the ...

    Pantoprazole was first prepared in April 1985 by a small group of scale-up chemists. It is a dimethoxy-substituted pyridine bound to a fluoroalkoxy substituted benzimidazole. [5] Pantoprazole sodium is available as gastroresistant or delayed release tablets and as lyophilized powder for intravenous use.

    Researchers have found that animals began to exhibit abnormal changes in blood flow after just one day of an artificially generated fast heart rate (designed to simulate a tachyarrythmia). [1] As their TIC progresses, these animals will have worsening heart function (e.g.: reduced cardiac output and reduced ejection fraction ) for 3–5 weeks ...

  8. Cardiac output - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_output

    Major factors influencing cardiac output – heart rate and stroke volume, both of which are variable. [1]In cardiac physiology, cardiac output (CO), also known as heart output and often denoted by the symbols , ˙, or ˙, [2] is the volumetric flow rate of the heart's pumping output: that is, the volume of blood being pumped by a single ventricle of the heart, per unit time (usually measured ...

    This often results in the restoration of normal sinus rhythm of the heart. If not, the use of atropine or glycopyrrolate will usually be successful and permit continuation of the surgical procedure. Caution should be used with fast-push, intravenous opioids and dexmedetomidine which exacerbate the bradycardia. [ 7 ]
